Area 419 AIAX Arcalock

[@chriskirchner6415]

Awesome review, I've been debating on going to Arca on my Tikka and I believe I'm sold on it now. Thanks for the details...

[@XRING]

The ARCA makes a huge difference for versatility.

[@durkydurk5244]

I got to shoot with Craig from Area 419 at last months Vortex Sandstorm match. These guys are really good people and they are all competitors! It shows in their product development.

[@larsjohansen2086]

Made an adapter to fit the Area 419 14 inch rail to the Tikka, area 419 is great stuff, thanks for another great review X-Ring

[@shawnk372]

Love their stuff. It’s great to see support for their products cause they’re products are top of the line and very innovative. Definitely want them to keep making more! Great video and keep up the content. Your videos are always done so well. 👍🏻

[@richardarthur3]

Nice gear. Good luck to you and Rick. Hope they work out the squad situation for you two.

[@XRING]

Thanks Richard! Same here, maybe we will get lucky and find someone who won’t mind switching squads.

[@davidgreer9567]

Dang man, you always have the coolest toys. I hope you and Rick do very well.

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Very Cool products from Area 419. Thanks for showing these products , X-Ring !!!!!!!!!!

[@fauxurfancy]

I have an arca rail and I love it. So much versatility. It’s great to be able to move my bipod easily for different barricades.

[@XRING]

It really does make a huge difference! Thanks for watching.

[@SbrGrendel65]

It's amazing how they have developed products to help eliminate human error as much as possible. Glad to see you got your 419 stuff, I'm sure that was a relief.

[@XRING]

Thanks SBR! It showed up today so I was scrambling to get it all together. I thought it would make a fun video to share with everyone.

[@kwspreu]

Bought a HellFire muzzle brake based on your review. Great engineering and no shim washers!!!

[@XRING]

I think it is still listed as the number 1 brake in PRS. I really like them. Thanks for watching Ken.

[@dakotahayden6937]

Great explanation of ARCA rail and it's benefits. I'm new to precision rifle shooting and appreciate the overview.

[@nayrr8385]

Area 419 makes great stuff but even better customer service! I had a issue with a hellfire suppressor mount and they answered me right away on a Saturday night through Sunday. Even followed up with me a couple months later. That arca is a nice edition to that AI 😏

[@XRING]

Thanks Nayr! They really have some innovative products and I can definitely second that their customer service is outstanding!

[@pehenry]

I have been living in Ohio for about 10 years now and never knew about these guys. Awesome.

[@joaquin-jacknava2696]

They do make good products. Thanks for the review. If I don’t get to talk to you before you guys head to the match. Best of luck to you guys and have lots of fun.

[@XRING]

Thanks Joaquin I really appreciate it. We hope to get you guys some decent footage from the match.

[@Tex_I_Can]

I'm glad to see you got the gear!! Good for both of you! Wishing the best for you guys at the match.

[@jacendavid]

Another awesome and informative video! Good luck this weekend!

[@conservativesniperhunter7439]

Great review of some awesome products. I’ve bookmarked this video that’s for sure . Best of luck at the shooting Competition .

[@CmoreTruth]

I hope you guys have a great trip and do well in the match. Godspeed for a Safe journey. 🙏

[@XRING]

Thanks and we have no expectations other than having a great time and learning a new sport. Thanks for watching!

[@Mntnphotog]

This is a bit humorous to me since, as a photographer, I've used Arca ball heads and QR mounts for decades. And I have heaps of RRS plates for various cameras and lenses. Nice to see them in the gun world. Quality transcends boundaries.

[@XRING]

Exactly! Old school products making their way into a new market. Good on the companies for following the trend.

[@Shadow6a]

And you doing youtube, that system serves dual purpose to be able to film and/or shoot off of.

[@ioreoboixd8366]

Glad I found this channel.

[@dragemd]

Thank you for this video. I just purchased an AI AX in part from following your channel. I too was looking to add an Arca rail and was undecided on this or the Victor Company handguard replacement. The Victor is probably a lighter weight option but I think this has some functionality that it is missing.

[@chrissmith6883]

Great review Ray! I love the Area 419 products. I have a Hell Fire on the way. Safe travels to Utah hope y’all have a great time and good luck

[@dominicksodano1284]

Hi bud I’m new to the channel and just getting into the long shooting scene, just picked up the AI AXSR with a Tangent Theta scope. Great videos out of the channels on here this is one of the better ones.

[@XRING]

Thanks Dominick and congratulations on the new AI. They are great rides for sure. Thanks for watching and commenting on the channel. Those TT scopes are top shelf !!👍🏼

[@metalisit]

Cool video. Good luck at your PRS competition this week.

[@tonygslc801]

Good Stuff Ray 👍 I hope you and Rick enjoy your time in my home State UT. Good luck on the match 👊😎🇺🇸 (get some)

[@mclmm6773]

The main issue I ran into with the ARCA up front is interference with side mounted IR lasers. You just about need the smaller footprint of ADM type mount on the AI to work with a PEQ-15 or ATILLA 200. Granted I am doing more night shooting than match, but just something to consider. I have to be semi local to you. If you ever want to do a video with a high FOM WP clip on hit me up.

[@plu5five]

Love Area419 products, Good video brother🤙🇺🇲

[@XRING]

Thanks Plu5Five! I hope you are doing well and I hope you have a great week. Can’t wait to try out that item!😎

[@plu5five]

@@XRING Thankyou and yes, in due time u will have one to destroy lol🤙🇺🇲jk on the destroy part

[@XRING]

PLU5 FIVE I try not to destroy anything unless that is the intent. Real world use is what matters. Thanks again Plu5 Five.

[@plu5five]

@@XRING Oh I trust you, i was just pulling your leg. If things work out in a timely fashion hopefully in a month or so You and Rick will have a new toy to try out. Goodluck this weekend at the match also @XRing🤙🇺🇲

[@stephana645]

Nice upgrade, but he may end up not liking that barricade stop so far forward. I Dremelled the heck out of my 419 rail to get it to mount all the way back to the magwell.

[@XRING]

Yeah, he will have to do that himself. I was just trying to get him somewhat setup before heading out.

[@marketheridge5980]

Great video

[@greenstreet5287]

First time ive seen a rifle with a sack... cool stuff x

[@XRING]

LOL! Yeah, it does look kind of funny. Reminds me of some of the pickup trucks I see around here! 🤣

[@johnshoureas1629]

Do they make a female version ?

[@davidhenderson1738]

“Or do I”…. Great video good info

[@erichuntter2437]

Some fancy kit 👌

[@jackson7421]

I can’t believe that Rick left his rifle with you. LoL. Just give him 5 minutes and he’ll have it painted. Haha. Good review on their stuff. Not that I need any of it, but it’s cool to see what all is out there.

[@XRING]

Thanks Jackson. He knows his stuff is safe with me. Heck, I am just trying to help him out. 😎. Now I just need to change his zero stop! 😂

[@jackson7421]

X-RING. Set his zero stop down 2 mills. Haha 😂

[@badbilly429]

Sweet set up hope you guys kick some ass!

[@1965caddie1965]

Thank you for the Video!

[@ramsaycountry1177]

I have the same funnel kit. It's very nice Ray

[@XRING]

They hit it out of the park with that funnel kit. Looking forward to a great weekend Ramsay!

[@ramsaycountry1177]

@@XRING I'm sure you guys will do great Ray.

[@WeaponsMachinist]

The rifle looks great!

[@XRING]

Thanks HRM. I think the rail made it look cleaner if that’s possible. “The wedge” 😂

[@talkingrock7011]

Quality product it looks durable

[@XRING]

Very sturdy and well built products for sure.

[@robertreynolds9228]

Very nice ray. I use Kryptonic its very exclusive one off stuff. Thank god i dont have to pay for it. Have a good day.

[@XRING]

I have never heard of them Robert. Sounds intriguing.

[@robertreynolds9228]

@@XRING Most of the stuff we get is fairly sterile. But for some reason in tiny lazer etched print these parts had Kryptonic on them. If your familiar with china lake SW&PD. Im sure they can head you in the correct direction. Working for Microtech and having mil funding is the only reason i would mention this to you. Cant wait for next vid Ray.

[@dannydivine7699]

I just got the parts from Ruger for my RPR to put the newer handguard with integral arca rail

[@XRING]

That’s going to make it really nice! Glad I was able to get everything in before flying out.

[@dannydivine7699]

@@XRING I'm looking forward to seeing the videos from out there

[@wredstar]

checking in to see if you still like the 419 arc rail for your AX? was thinking of getting one, wasn't sure if you found a better product then the 419 after a year. thx

[@slapshot9119]

Great information, thanks for sharing this with us. Can you tell me more about your RRS Tripod and head?

[@slapshot9119]

I'm good now, just found your video on the Tripod setup...Thanks!

[@Chris-cw3mp]

Think that they will ship to the UK ??

[@TexasTrained]

I've been wanting to get an Arxxa Swiss rail but liked my stick so ..This will do the trick.Thanks.What brand of tripod is that

[@reedskeet1]

What type of scope mounts are on the pew pews.

[@andrewpetrolo8131]

What brand tripod is that in the background?

[@robertjenkins9747]

You very knowledgeable on rifles. What branch were you in? You gotta be former military. Love the channel.

[@XRING]

Thanks Robert. I’m a no body just an enthusiast. I really appreciate you watching.

[@robertjenkins9747]

@@XRING yea, I say I was a Potato peeler. Great shooting, I like the one mile video.

[@XRING]

Thanks Robert. I usually say yard boy.....true story. 😅

[@OtherTimDavis]

I would not worry about scratching the anodizing, you know Rick is going to rattle can that rail and barricade stop.

[@XRING]

NO Doubt Tim. Of course it will never slide as well but he is going to do what he wants to do.

[@shutout8888]

How much for those 200 rounds of Federal .223 77gr on the shelf?! 😜

[@XRING]

LOL! Thanks Shutout. I appreciate you asking but those are “rainy day” items. 😂

[@supperwelder]

hmmm I just might have to come watch the match depending on where in utah/Wyoming it is located😺

[@user-om2do9bk2v]

Hi X Ring I'm consider buying one of those arca rail, but the main concern for me is the tilt, does it bother you in anyway?

[@CheddaChief]

Have a Great Match!

[@angrybiker1]

What scope and mount is Rick running on that Tikka

[@XRING]

He normally runs the Vortex Razor HD. However, PRS makes you run in open division with his scope. He wanted to shoot production division which has a 2k cap on the optics price. I loaned him the Primary Arms Platinum for the match. I think it has an Era Tac mount. I don’t recall and I am not at the house 🤣

[@angrybiker1]

X-RING thanks

[@kotaboy32]

Love arca rail stuff

[@jacendavid]

You are too good to Rick! Lol

[@45auto]

While not the intended purpose that looks like a great option for youngsters or people with physical issues to hunt out of a blind.

[@XRING]

For sure, plenty of applications for making a cleaner shot. Thanks for watching and commenting

[@MEHEREWGTNNZ]

Ohhh upgrades ... hahahaha ... I'm gonna be broke

[@tom_olofsson]

Boba Fett had one of those.

LOL Tom! I hope you are doing well.
